Best 5 Stuffed Hazelnut Cookies Recipes

CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter begins to bubble it will begin to brown; lower the heat and allow to slowly brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, dark-brown sugar and granulated sugar. Beat until incorporated. (At this point, the butter and sugar will look separated and broken, but that's ok!) Beat in the vanilla, egg, egg yolk and yogurt.
• In medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Lower the speed on the mixer to low. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, followed by the bittersweet and milk chocolate chips. Mix until everything is fully incorporated.
• Begin scooping the dough by tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets. Once you have 12 tablespoons of dough on each cookie sheet, get the chocolate-hazelnut spread! Make an indentation in each cookie where the chocolate-hazelnut spread will live. Carefully scoop 1 heaping teaspoon of spread into each indentation.
• Scoop 1 tablespoon of the remaining cookie dough and place it on top of the chocolate hazelnut spread, creating a dome over the spread. (You want to surround the spread completely with dough so it doesn't ooze out during baking.) Repeat until all cookies are covered. Sprinkle each cookie with sea salt.
• You can freeze the cookies for up to a month at this point (freeze them on the baking sheet, and when solid transfer them to zip-close freezer-proof bags), or bake them right away. Bake the cookies until slightly browned on the edges (the tops may be doughy), about 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies may look underdone, but don't worry, they will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. Cool the cookies on the pan.

COCOA-HAZELNUT STUFFED COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir together cookie mix, melted butter, egg and 1 tablespoon of the milk; set aside.
• In small bowl, mix hazelnut spread and powdered sugar until well blended. Roll half of hazelnut mixture into 5 balls, using about 1 tablespoon mixture per ball.
• For each cookie, press 1/4 cup cookie dough with hands until flat; make small well in center of dough. Place hazelnut ball in well. Seal cookie dough around hazelnut ball, sealing mixture completely inside. Place on ungreased large cookie sheet.
• Bake 11 to 13 minutes or just until edges of cookies are golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.
• Into remaining half of hazelnut mixture, stir enough remaining milk until thin icing forms. Drizzle icing over top of cooled cookies; sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Let icing set before serving.

NUTELLA-STUFFED COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl.
• Beat together the brown sugar and butter in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at time, beating after each addition to incorporate. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to medium, add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated.
• Divide the dough into 18 equal mounds, each about 2 tablespoons, and flatten slightly with wet hands. Put 2 teaspoons of the chilled chocolate-hazelnut spread in the center of each piece of dough, then press and pinch the cookie dough around the spread to form round and sealed balls. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, position oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Put 6 chilled dough balls onto each prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges, about 20 minutes. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a rack or plate and serve warm if you'd like. When the baking sheets have cooled completely, bake the remaining 6 dough balls on one of the sheets, then let cool slightly.
• Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-in. round cookie cutter. Place 1/4 teaspoon Nutella in center. Fold dough partially in half, just enough to cover filling., Place 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Brush with beaten egg; sprinkle with hazelnut mixture. Bake 10-12 minutes or until bottoms are light brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
